Simpac America, Troy, MI, has received a purchase order from Martinrea Intl. that reportedly will result in one of the largest press systems to be used by a Tier One U.S. automotive supplier. The order includes two fully automated press systems: a 1600-metric-ton press, and a 3000-metric-ton press with a 300-in. bed. Both will support production of Martinrea's value-added lightweight structures and propulsion systems at its plant in Hopkinsville, KY. "We are proud to be selected as the press manufacturer of choice for this grand project," says YH Kim, president of North American Operations at Simpac America.
